    You got me interested Fretty so I started hunting and I think I've found it - actually a little disappointed as I thought it was my idea!!

    It's from the Pawn Shop series and it's called a Super-Sonic. Mine will be a bit different though so not a direct copy - interesting how they also played with the lower horn to make it look better, almost exactly as I did.
